Silent Sam update - Page 2

**HwyRider** · 01-23-2015, 07:35 AM

Sam, I knew this was coming the first day that you posted about your bladder cancer.

I can only say that you will be missed here.

You will be going to a more tranquil place. Walk through the gates with your head high.

Stunned in reading this. Sam, may the peace that passeth understanding rest with you and your family in the coming days. Thoughts and prayers with you and them.

redjay · 01-23-2015, 08:25 AM

You are in my thoughts. I wish you peace.

Hey Sam, before you go leave a forwarding address mate.

if i ever get back to visit the USA i need to come and have a beer with you at you're resting place, until then, Goodbye mate. Mick.

I always looked forward to your posts. Now, you are truly silent. May the smile of God light you to Glory! Godspeed!

Hope they have big assed bikes in the next life, if anyone can sneak back here and tell us you can Sam. God be with you.

Oh man that was well put, this is a sad post. Silent Sam won't see this I suppose but I gotta say it anyway - this really sucks! We're all getting robbed of his continued camaraderie, experience, support and friendship. Man will he be missed. Happy Trails Sam.

Vulcan Bill · 01-23-2015, 12:17 PM

Goodbye Sam. We'll see you on the other side.

**JD Hog** · 01-23-2015, 12:34 PM

Prayers are being sent your way Silent Sam.

You will be greatly missed here at the forum.

GeorgeHouston · 01-23-2015, 01:42 PM

I really don't know you but surely everyone is gonna miss you

ponch · 01-23-2015, 03:04 PM

See you down the road.

**Jared** · 01-23-2015, 03:13 PM

Wow, not what I expected to read this afternoon. I'm very sorry to read this.

I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. You will be missed!

**BudMan** · 01-23-2015, 05:09 PM

Truly saddened to hear this. Hoping for a miracle.

**ringadingh** · 01-23-2015, 06:33 PM

Very sorry to be reading this Sam, but eventually we are all called upon. I wish I could have meet you as you sure did have a pile of interesting stories to tell. May Godspeed and hopefully we will meet on the other side some day. Prayers sent to you and your family.

**canuckrider** · 01-23-2015, 09:06 PM

Sam, although I never met you, I felt that I knew you through your posts on the forum. I can only hope that in your final days that your caregivers can make you as comfortable as possible. God Bless and Good Bye.
